do you prefer swimming pools or beaches ?

Both are OK with me. Swimming pools more convenient cos the changing room and bathroom are nearby. At the beach, have to walk a distance... :angel:

First learn stand, then learn fly. Nature's rules biker-sans. Not mine...

i do try to swim at Tampines SAFRA once a week after work :sweat:

I see limbs everywhere on the road

Limbs of strangers i have not met

Are the Roads that vicious ?

Or is it just Dangerous ?

Whatever it is, no one can predict what lies on the roads................

Good... keep it going and swimming is good for building your back muscle that prevent slip disc or any back problem in old age. You swim for good health too. Swim more and eventually your stroke will be as graceful as tai chi. Do not forget... swimming is an art. :)

 

On the next level, try taking part in event such as biathlon or master swim to keep your inspiration grow and you will feel more encouraged and motivated. Form a group swim to meet once a week does help. Cheer~~
